Times-Advocate, 1979-11-14, Page 2The squeaky wheel cer- tainly gets the grease in s education circles. The Huron County board of education learned Tuesday that on occasion govenment itself can become a victim of government bureaucracy. John Cochrane, director of education, told the board that a recent appeal of the board's education requisi- tion to the village of Bayfield had been appealed. He ex- plained that each year the board passes its budget and then divides up the amount of money to be paid into education coffers by municipalities in the county. He said the board notifies each municipality of its ap- portionment and bills it for the amount. He said Bayfield had objected to the amount it was billed and appealed the matter. The director1 said any appeal by a town or township is sent to a special meeting of clerks and treasurers in the county. That group hears the arguement raised by the appealing municipality and acts as an arbitrator in the matter. He said the clerks had heard the appeal and voted in favor of the board's requisition. Bayfield was not satisfied with those results and took the matter to the Ontario Municipal Board. A hearing date was set for December 10 in the municipal offices in Bayfield. The OMB instructed the board of education to notify all clerks and treasurers of the meeting by first class mail. Cochrane said that was no sooner done than the municipal board sent- the board of education a bill for $25, presumably for the ren- tal of the hall. "The wheels of government," muttered Cochrane.

Despite un- favourable weather and other meetings scheduled for that night, more than 30 Chamber members showed up. President Nick Carter said that .the Chamber was Saddened over the death of two members last week. Eric Many of Grand Bend, a founding member of the Chamber, and George Knapp of Brantford, owner of the Main street amusement park both died the previous week, The Chamber is going ahead with plans to move their information booth to a more visible location on the corner of highway 81 and 81 crescent. Simpson said that he was taking sketches to the planning board. "We don't' foresee any problems," he said. Plans include an at- tractive new sign and eventually they would like to add public washrooms. Tickets for the Chamber's wild game dinner on November 17 are still available. The dinner is going to be served buffet style, with all-you-can-eat of such dishes as venison and rabbit.

Staff photo "Selling Grand Bend with a sizzle" was the topic at last Tuesday night's meeting pf the Chamber of Commerce. Guest speaker was Becky Hales of the visitors and conventions services for the led city of London. Ms. Hale told Chamber members that they should use the right words in their advertising so that readers can almost "taste" the hotdogs and hamburgs when they read the brochure. Ms. Hale complimented .the Chamber of their slogan • "Grand Bend is for lovers." She said that they should "play up" the phrase, and include lovers of water, sand, sun, night life, shop- ping, and so on.
